Combine authorization

Posted on Mar 07, 2017 at 03:49 PM 147 Views

Hi Gurus!

I need to create the following authorization:

The user can access to Cust_group = "1" and "2" where Cust_group2 = *. But, for Cust_group = 3 he only access where Cust_group2 = "1" . I created two

authorizations objects where:

- Cust_group = 1 and 2 / Cust_group2 = *

- Cust_group = 3 / Cust_group2 = 1

I appened these objects in a role.Running the query, If I add a filter Cust_group = 3 and Cust_group2 = 1, it shows the correct data.But If change to Cust_group = 3 and Cust_group2 = * the query shows an authorization error. With this filter I'd like that the query shows me the customers from Cust_group2 = 1 and Cust_group = 3

. I tried creating a Composite Role, but it didn't solve this issue...

    This kind of problem is usually solved by authorization variables.

    The note 668520 will explain you why you can't in your case (multidim authorization) and will give you some possible workarounds.
